@@darklord884 They never even use oyabun in Japanese lmao, they say oyaji

@@nototl2317 They do sometimes. It's technically the same, just a bit different. Oyaji is used more frequently, but they do use oyabun. Hence why they used it in the dub by merely leaving it untranslated.

THIS IS FAMILY BUSINESS

Raiden: "Fuck you!"

FUCK, OYABUN

YA KU ZA

Funniest thing is that they don't even say Oyabun in the Japanese version. They generally say Oyassan / Oyaji (lit. "boss" / "dad") or Kumichou (lit. patriarch of a yakuza family). And most of the time they say "Yakuza" in the En dub, they actually use other words like Gokudou (lit. "extreme path") in the original version. Along with Honshoku (lit. "pro"), Sujimon etc, they only use "Yakuza" to refer to yakuza like 30% of the time.

Oh yah ? Boon ?

THE LYP SYNC

Japanese dub; I look forward to this fight English dub; FUCKETY FUCK, BITCH ASS FUCK

They misinterpreted the dialog Judging by the times, they would've also been okay dubbing in some accidental homo-eroticism like "I'm gonna pound your ass till you can't sit on it no more" And then Kiryu can say his "I don't think that means what you think it means" retort. It preserves the implication that Gary's not got the best handle on language, and also gives English Yakuza that rough edge over the Japanese they were going for WITHOUT making him 'a black prison dude'

I disagree. Sounds more to me like they needed better acting directors instead. The translation reads perfectly fine overall, minus a few awkward borrowings of Japanese words and a mistranslation here and there. I don't understand why people are up in arms about the f bombs. Japanese doesn't have an equivalent swear word to 'fuck', but based on the context of the game the f word is used pretty convincingly most of the time imo. You don't think the Yakuza would say 'fuck' if it was part of their language?

Nishiki has the magic ability to have a good voice actor for every launguage

As another comment said, this game really shows the importance of voice direction. Most if not all the VAs are extremely talented, they just weren't given enough time or proper direction to make these characters sound better than good at best and comical at worst. Despite all the PS2 Nishiki memes, he's unironically the character with some of the best line delivery in the game, and this scene highlights it.

Well Kazuma chan

Seriously though, did they mix up some of the characters last and first names, because they call Kiryu by his first name instead of the normal Kiryu, but Nishiki is still Nishiki and Majima ain't called Goro as far as I know.

⁠​⁠@@coomcharger6105probably because in the context of majima since he’s older than kiryu and because in the original japanese he called kiryu using the informal kiryu-chan they decided to use his front name kazuma to denote the informality like in japanese, this also to contrast with the more formal and mannered kiryu. Meanwhile in nishiki’s case the word nishiki itself is shortened from nishikiyama so they probably thought no need to change it to denote formality or not
